There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Much agreed

The African lion as a single subspecies also has many different clades; the East African lion and South African lion are obviously two different clades within a same subspecies.

The West/Central African lion is also a unique clade of the African lion subspecies, and this particular clade had later given the birth of a brand new subspecies known as "Panthera leo persica".

In my own opinion, the African lion should be considered as the nominated subspecies as "Panthera leo leo", since it is the original Panthera leo, and "Panthera leo persica" is just a mutated version of "Panthera leo leo".
